Psychogram - Psychograph

Psychograph

This was developed by Leslie King, between 1970 and 1979. The most visible difference is the names of the factors:

  • Functional Ability;
  • Mental Capabilities;
  • Self Concept;
  • Interpersonal Relationships;
  • Areas of Vulnerability;
  • Productivity;
  • Hindrances To Success;
  • Defense Systems;

Ms King constantly changed both the datapoints, and method of scoring them, to correspond with what her research validated. This resulted in different sets of students being taught different ways of evaluating the same datapoint. It also resulted in some datapoints being dropped, in favor of others. Despite the empirical basis that this system has, it is doomed to being nothing more than footnote in history, for the simple reason that upon her death, her heirs destroyed all of her material related to handwriting analysis.
